Chen Changyuan is the eldest son of the village head. He is considerate, thoughtful and knowledgeable. These days, he deals with people from all walks of life every day. He has become more calm and eloquent, and is more like the second in command than Fourth Uncle Tang.
Chen Jiu, who had just been sent away by Tang Shiyue, was his youngest son.
As soon as Chen Changyuan came over, he smiled and said, "Master Tang."
Tang Shiyue thought something was wrong with the winery, so she stood up. However, Chen Changyuan spoke quickly, "I just heard that Dongzi's father doesn't want Dongzi to go to town. I want us to follow Mr. Tang to gain some experience... I've wanted to tell you a long time ago that no matter where we go or what we do, Mr. Tang can give us orders as he wants. It's all up to you. I have no objection."
Tang Shiyue picked young men who were no older than fifteen years old, the kind who could not do heavy work but were familiar with odd jobs.
Chen Jiu is also a very smart kid among them, but her last name is Tang, so people with the last name Tang are given priority.
Chen Changyuan was really smart. He probably saw through the trick a long time ago. When he heard about this, he knew it was an opportunity and rushed over.
Tang Shiyue was rather willful in her actions, and just because of his act of helping her slap him in the face, she felt instantly refreshed and said with a smile: "You said that, so I won't be polite."
Chen Changyuan smiled and said, "Master Tang, please don't be polite! I have to thank you very much for using the wine!"
A few people left chatting and laughing.
...
...
Those who stayed behind were confused and looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Chen Changyuan was recognized as a very knowledgeable person among them. He came here in a hurry just to grab this job. This was definitely not to curry favor with Tang Shiyue. It must be for the wine.
What does this mean? It means this is definitely a good job!
Tang Dongzi's parents were dumbfounded. They were clearly slapped in the face, but they didn't understand why.
Could it be that hanging out with a gang of thugs is actually a good thing? What's the logic behind this?
Tang Shiyue and his companions walked to the stone house and separated from Chen Changyuan.
Qi Jing advised her: "The villagers are short-sighted, don't be angry."
"I'm not angry now." Tang Shiyue said, "They are so stupid that they don't even know it. I just feel sorry for them."
Mrs. Ye was also a little angry.
Dongzi's mother came to ask in the morning, and she kindly told her where Tang Dongzi was going. She didn't expect there would be such a follow-up.
How could she be happy when these people avoided Han Yi like he was the plague? She couldn't help but say, "I regret them so much! They are such parents, and they can ruin even the best things!"
"Stupidity is the original sin!" Tang Shiyue sighed, "You cheat people to death in the name of 'for your own good', and the people you cheat don't obey, and you seem to have no conscience. This is called aggrieved."
Qi Jing suddenly looked at her and smiled.
His smile was so beautiful that Tang Shiyue couldn't help but smile along with him.
Then she pulled his sleeve: "What are you laughing at?"
Qi Jing looked at Madam Zhou and smiled, "I was thinking that Auntie is the one who is very wise but appears foolish. There are some things that she doesn't understand, but she doesn't think too much about it. She just remembers one thing: 'What Ayue does is definitely right', and it works everywhere. If others can learn this, it will save a lot of trouble."
Madam Zhou laughed at that moment and patted him on the back: "You kid, you're teasing me!"
Tang Shiyue stared at him with eyes wide open...
This boy, did you secretly attend a refresher course? How come you suddenly became a top-level sweet talker? If this continues, she won't be able to resist! Really!
…………
In the afternoon, Tang Shiyue and Qi Jing went to find the clan leader and the village head.
As usual, they bought a piece of land first, and then Tang Shiyue asked the clan leader to help organize people to build a workshop.
This young lady had shocked them so much that the old patriarch had become somewhat numb.
Because of Lady Fu's reputation, he now seemed to have a sense of mission like a believer, and could not even think of questioning it.
Besides, Tang Shiyue never let anyone suffer any loss when helping her, so he was happy to do it and agreed without hesitation.
Then the clan leader and the village head called some people over and talked about the matter.
Before, when it came to the jelly issue, there were still people who dared to say sarcastic things, and when it came to the bean curd stick issue, there were still people who dared to make indirect accusations, but after the incident where Grandma Sun was bitten by a wolf, no one dared to be disrespectful to her anymore.
Money is attractive to people, and everyone loves money. However, when a person stands too high and others can only look up to him, even jealousy cannot arise.
Someone asked her, "Mr. Tang, how many people will it take to build this workshop?"
Tang Shiyue said: "The more the better, maybe dozens or even hundreds."
There were shocked gasps from the crowd, and someone said, "Then...then we don't have enough manpower in our village!"
Tang Shiyue said: "I was just about to tell my uncle about this. When the workshop is built, people from nearby villages can come and learn."
She paused for a moment, then dropped a bombshell: "This time, unmarried young ladies can also come and learn."
Everyone was surprised, and someone hesitated and asked, "Then, won't the craft be spread out?"
"Yes, I know." Tang Shiyue said, "But this job can't be done by few people. Besides, I was thinking, if this skill can make the young ladies in the villages more delicate and less tortured after getting married, then it won't matter even if it gets out."
After a moment of silence, many women couldn't help but shed tears.
At this time, many young ladies who were waiting to be married had not yet fully realized the significance of this matter, but many, many years later, they would still keep remembering these words spoken by the young lady with bright eyes.
Someone trembled and said, "Tang Dangjia Gao Yi!"
"Master Tang, you are truly a bodhisattva!
Tang Shiyue waved her hand and said, "You don't have to worry too much. It's easy to learn, but hard to master. When you first enter the workshop, I will only teach you the basics. Later, I will select some people with good skills and good character to be my disciples. Only my disciples will be taught more advanced things."
Having said that, everyone is still worried. This is the characteristic of the times. Everyone is used to keeping their craftsmanship under wraps.
But this is a big matter, so we still have to listen to the clan leader and the village head.
Tang Shiyue happened to have something else to do, so he left first and let them discuss it on their own.
She went to town with Qi Jing.
Chen Jiu was also very smart. He passed the message to Tang Dongzi and asked him to give the mule cart back, and then he stayed.
So when Tang Shiyue mentioned that he needed a car, Tang Dongzi came over hurriedly.
His eyes were red, obviously he had been crying.
Tang Shiyue herself had family members who held her back, so she was more tolerant of this kind of thing and asked him, "What's wrong?"
Tang Dongzi knelt down with a thud, choking with sobs, "Master Tang, I'm sorry! I know you mean well! I know you want me to see the world! Learn some skills! My parents are stupid!"
So, this is the benefit of going out.
Go out more, meet more people, chat more, and your horizons will naturally broaden and you will see things more clearly. Although this child is very young, he is probably the most sober one in his family.
Tang Shiyue said, "Get up. I'm not angry with you, but I can't use you against your parents' wishes. Do you understand? So, go back."
Tang Dongzi felt a little desperate, but didn't say much. He just bowed his head, got up and left, wiping tears as he walked.
Qi Jing drove the car himself, and the two of them soon arrived in the town. The little beggar took them to a restaurant where several people were drinking.
Qi Jing was young and taciturn, Tang Shiyue was a woman, and as they were the "hosts", it was tacitly agreed that they did not need to show up. However, in order to show their sincerity, the two of them came over and showed their faces, each gave a greeting gift, chatted for a few words, and then left with honor.
The two of them didn't eat either, and after coming out, they didn't go back home. Instead, they just ordered something to eat at the private room next to them.
At this hour, there were almost no customers in the restaurant, and all I could hear was them talking loudly.
